Criminals
MS MR Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Strangers on your breath
Feed me your lies
Shoot me like a star
We're falling for this high

You're a crook, i'm a thief
You're the heart, i'm the beat
We're a mess but we try
We're alive, we can hardly breathe
I can't leave

Till death do us part
But my heart's getting dark
On the edge of a cliff
This car's gonna start now
I can breath

Do you want a way out?
Do ya?
Do ya?
Do you want a way out?
Do ya?
I don't want a way out
You and I know the truth
Even though it hurts
I just wanna be a criminal with you
A criminal with you
We're criminals

Running from the lights
We can't stop till the end
Only one desire like fire on ice
Heaven I want you
Heaven I want you
Heaven I want you
Heaven I want you

Do you want a way out?
Do ya?
Do ya?
Do you want a way out?
Do ya?
I don't want a way out
You and I know the truth
Even though it hurts
I just wanna be a criminal with you
A criminal with you
We're criminals

You're a crook, i'm a thief
You're the heart, i'm the beat
We're a mess but we try
We're alive
We can hardly breathe
I can't leave

Till death do us part
But my heart's getting dark
On the edge of a cliff
This car's gonna start now
I can breath

Do you want a way out?
Do ya?
Do ya?
Do you want a way out?
Do ya?
I don't want a way out
You and I know the truth
Even though it hurts
I just wanna be a criminal with you

We don't want a way out
You and I know the truth
I just wanna be a criminal with you
A criminal with you
Do ya?
Do ya?




I just wanna be a criminal with you
We're criminals

Overall Meaning

The song "Criminals" by MS MR is a hauntingly beautiful song that talks about being in love with someone who is trouble, and being willing to go down that same path with them. The opening lines "Strangers on your breath, Feed me your lies, Shoot me like a star, We're falling for this high" talks about the physical and emotional attraction between two people who are not good for each other. The chorus of the song emphasizes that despite the fact that the couple knows that this love is dangerous and will hurt them in the end, they still are willing to risk it all as they want to be "criminals" together.


The lines "Till death do us part, But my heart’s getting dark, On the edge of a cliff, This car’s gonna start now" depict a sense of foreboding, hinting at the darkness that is bound to descend if the couple decides to stick with each other.

The song's ending emphasizes the couple's commitment and their undying love for each other, as they sing in unison "We don’t want a way out, You and I know the truth, I just wanna be a criminal with you."


Line by Line Meaning

Strangers on your breath
I sense that you're hiding something, even if it's something I don't want to know


Feed me your lies
I know you're not telling the truth, but I want to believe your lies anyway


Shoot me like a star
Let's go all out and take life by storm, even if we crash and burn


We're falling for this high
We know we're headed for disaster, but we just can't resist the thrill of the ride


You're a crook, I'm a thief
We're both guilty of something, and we're both hiding secrets


You're the heart, I'm the beat
You're the driving force behind our actions, and I'm the one keeping the rhythm


We're a mess but we try
We know we're flawed, but we're doing the best we can to make it work


We're alive, we can hardly breathe
We're taking risks that make us feel alive, even if they leave us gasping for air


I can't leave
I'm in too deep, and walking away is not an option


Till death do us part
We're in this together until the bitter end


But my heart's getting dark
I'm becoming jaded and cynical, and it's taking a toll on my soul


On the edge of a cliff
We're teetering on the brink of disaster, but we're not ready to jump


This car's gonna start now
We're revving up our engines and getting ready to take off


I can breathe
I feel alive and invigorated, even in the face of danger


Do you want a way out?
Are you looking for a way to escape our dangerous lifestyle?


Do ya?
Are you really ready to leave everything behind?


I don't want a way out
I'm committed to this life of risk and adventure, no matter where it takes me


You and I know the truth
We both know that what we're doing is dangerous and probably not sustainable


Even though it hurts
We know that our lifestyle is going to inevitably cause us pain and heartache


I just wanna be a criminal with you
I'm committed to our life of risk and adventure, and I want to experience it all with you


We're criminals
We're living outside the law and taking risks that most people wouldn't dare


Running from the lights
We're on the run, constantly avoiding detection and trying to stay one step ahead of the authorities


We can't stop till the end
We know that our lifestyle is unsustainable, but we're going to keep going until we can't anymore


Only one desire like fire on ice
Our passion and desire for this life is intense, even though it's inherently dangerous


Heaven I want you
We know that our lifestyle is leading us towards destruction, but we can't help but want it anyway


We don't want a way out
We're committed to this life of risk and adventure, no matter where it takes us


Do ya?
Are you really ready to commit fully to this lifestyle?

Strangers on your breath
Feed me your lies
Shoot me like a star
Falling from the sky

You're a crook, I'm a thief
You're the heart, I'm the beat
We're a mess, but we try
We're alive, we can hardly breathe
I can't leave
'Till death do us part
But my hearts getting dark
On the edge of the cliff
This cars gonna start
Now I can't breathe

Do you wanna way out?
Do you? Do you?
Do you wanna way out?
Do you?

I don't wanna way out
You and I know the truth
Even though it hurts
I just wanna be a criminal with you
Criminal with you
We're criminals

Running from the lights
Can't stop 'till the end
Only one design like fire and ice

Heaven I want you, heaven I want you
Heaven I want you, heaven I want you

But my hearts getting dark
On the edge of the cliff
This cars gonna start
Now I can't breathe

ThoseWhoStayUofM OK so you might've heard the song "All the things lost" . Anyways I believe that the song was written in the perspective of the Married persons wife/husband finding out their partners affair . Then in the last verse of the lyrics , I believe everyone knows the person partner is have an affair

"No more apologies need to be exchanged"

" Easier to live with pain than have to let it go"

"Anything other than what we already know"

"All our silence could not excuse"

"Oh no words could ever help relieve this pain"

"Everyone keeps asking are if we are ok
The truth is we're not
But I don’t know what to say"

ALSO THE TITLE "ALL THE THINGS LOST"

That's not what this song is about. That's what the video is about... but that's not the song. The lyrics depict a different story. There's a sexual relationship going on between two people. One of those people is currently married, but didn't tell the other. The song is written as the unmarried other who discovered his/her married partner is living a double life. The married man/woman is dissatisfied in his/her relationship with his/her wife/husband. This song is a call to the married person, that I know it's wrong for us to be in this relationship. Even though you've lied to me from the beginning, I still want you. What we're doing is criminals, but I want to be criminals with you. I don't want you to tell your husband/wife about me. I don't want to be a home wrecker. Even if you want a way out of your marriage, I don't want that. That's wrong. But I can't help it, I just want to be criminals with you.

Important lyrics:

"Strangers on your breath. Feed me your lies."

"Till death do us part, but my hearts getting dark."

"Do you want a way out? I don't want a way out. You and I know the truth, even though it hurts. I just want to be a criminal with you."

"Only one desire, like fire and ice. Heaven! I want you... Heaven! I want you."
